EXPERT TIP "I consider green a neutral eye shadow, but it's important to be very measured when you use it," says Dubroff. Keep the shade below the crease of the lid to avoid looking overdone, and reach for a brown liner for definition. A smudge under the bottom lashline can also have subtle impact.

"Both Angelina Jolie and Naomi Watts have beautiful cheekbones, so it's nice that they're using this soft shade to let them take precedence," says Dubroff. "They've also kept the color focused on the true apples of the cheeks, which helps the look pop."

EXPERT TIP Be sure the rest of your skin is clear and free of imperfections, which will help the blush stand out. "If you need a little contour, try a swipe of bronzer along your cheekbones," says Dubroff.

"There's been a lot of orange lipstick on the runways and it's not for everyone," says Dubroff. "What's nice about this slightly pinkish hue that Cat Deeley and Krysten Ritter have chosen is that it gives a nod to that trend without going over the edge."

EXPERT TIP Persimmon isn't a bright and it isn't a nude-so pick your shade accordingly. "When you're standing at the makeup counter, look for a hue that's in the middle of the color range. And be sure to try this one on as the natural pigment in your lips will intensify the shade a few notches," she says.

Heavy Black Eyeliner

"Ellen Page's liner looks more blended, while Amanda Seyfried's is heavy and layered," says Dubroff. Either way, this look is about giving your eyeliner a sultry, lived-in feel.

EXPERT TIP According to Dubroff, a coating of liner along the inner rim of your bottom lash-also called the waterline-is the quickest way to amp up the drama. "I put it on my clients's waterlines, have them blink, blend the liner and start again," she says. "Building this imperfect, smudgy line is incredibly sexy."

"Layered silver, gold and bronze on the eyes is like wearing jewelry on the face," says Dubroff. She also notes that both Diane Kruger and Alexis Bledel kept the rest of their faces neutral-and opted for white dresses-to really work the look.

EXPERT TIP "Too much mascara can interfere with these sweet, sparkly shades," says Dubroff. "I tend to use brown mascara to keep it light."

"The perfect complexions you see on Jessica Biel and Thandie Newton are the product of healthy lifestyles-and amazing genetics," says Dubroff. "Luckily for the rest of us, there are a few great ways of faking it."

EXPERT TIP For many of us, foundation is intimidating-but if applied with a light touch, it's almost impossible to screw up. "Put a few drops on a brush and start at the center of your face, sweeping outwards," says Dubroff. "You're just evening any variances in color, not concealing blemishes." And skip the powder: While it's great for blotting out shine in photographs, it can dull the real-life dewiness of this look.
